Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 426

Aurora's eyes narrowed, her entire body stiffening as a fierce intent flashed from her gaze. But she quickly composed herself, adopting a nonchalant demeanor.

"So what? If she wants to watch the commotion, that's her business."

Viola choked momentarily. "What?! Aurora, I'm begging you. Can you please go to Jadehill Estate and apologize again? Your actions have not only affected the Warren family, but also impacted my husband's career!"

"Your husband?" Aurora sneered coldly. "You call him that so easily."

"What's wrong with how I address him? Isn't he my husband?"

Aurora's voice grew colder, "Yes, he is your husband. So, if you want to plan his future, apologize, or contribute money, that's your responsibility."

"What is that supposed to mean?"

Aurora drew her sword slightly, her expression steely. "That means you should leave. Don't provoke me."

Viola trembled with rage. She struggled to understand how, despite being a member of the family and the legitimate, primary wife, Aurora dared to be so audacious and rude to her.

Viola had told Carissa that she was willing to contribute her dowry to support the Warren family, but internally, she felt deeply frustrated.

"Aurora, my elder brother is the general of the Hell Monarch Army, and I'm a lady from the Earl of Silverstone's family. How dare you be so disrespectful to me?!"

Aurora chuckled with a hint of scorn. "What? Are you going to have your brother bring the Hell Monarch Army to deal with me? Or do you think your family can bully me, a mere wife granted by the king?"

Viola felt utterly defeated. "You're nothing but a scoundrel. I can't believe my husband ever had feelings for you. You must have seduced him on the battlefield. You're just as despicable as Carissa. Both of you are shameless."

Aurora laughed. "Well, that must be a disappointment for you. On the battlefield, he was the one who showed interest in me first. He was the one who said he liked me. And comparing me to Carissa? What's she even worth? She's just a shameless, once-divorced woman who remarried."

As she spoke of Carissa, her eyes remained fixed on Viola, with a pointed and unmistakable implication.

Carissa never complained. When Charlotte sometimes grumbled about the situation, Carissa would say that since her husband was busy fighting enemies on the battlefield, she shouldn't add to his worries about home.

A woman from a military family had this kind of awareness—war was the most important thing, so she took care of every detail in the household.

Now, even though Viola used her dowry to supplement the household, she often spoke of reducing staff and cutting costs. While meals were still provided, snacks had disappeared, and even the daily meals were far less sumptuous than before.

Moreover, due to Aurora's harsh words toward Mary, Valor Estate was filled with the stench of excrement daily.

Viola's management of the household left much to be desired. The servants were lazy and neglectful, and she could not control them. With daily incidents of excrement being thrown, she couldn't come up with a solution.

If it were Carissa handling things...

Well, if Carissa were in charge, the Warren family would be prominently featured on the donation list instead of being the target of such disgrace!
